Yep! I think if #06R had repainted, it would have been done a long long time ago. Fortunately, Harrods livery stayed!

But let's just hope that #05R will keep it's YACCO livery also!

I think I would have needed some Nitro's after that.......
It's quite incredible if really they have given this car to be driven many people, not just the owner closest friends.

And there is the answer; what I was looking for. #06R and #12R both still racelivery, fantastic.

Damn, everyday I swear we don't have here at Finland any F1's!

I dig out the thread with a pic of #12R at Le Mans 97'

Probably not new but not sure.

The pic was taken by Lord Brett

Great picture Phil - looks just like it did when I saw it at Silverstone, with the man himself driving it, a year or so later

[cabrio92]

One of the most epic F1 trip in my mind.

#03R, #05R, #15R and #19R added and some pics re-hosted, to bring this up to date [not yet added #21R nor #27R as both haven't been seen on the street yet ]

Still not a fan of longtails being converted. They look like they're floating or on stilts.

There was an article about this trip in the bmw magazine in '97

[Sami Aaltonen]

Can you scan it someway here?!

Anyway, it was a brilliant story. Very special. The car which run 9th in 1996, was back in Le Mans year after with road plates.
Which else car would do this thing..
